Commerce already has ordered liquidation as entered, at the cash deposit rate in effect at the time of entry, for entries during the period of review from all exporters not under review, in a message to CBP (ADCVDWeb Message # 2238401).
Cash Deposit Requirements
Once Commerce issues its final results, new AD cash deposit requirements may take effect for the two companies remaining under review, beginning on the date of publication of the final results in the Federal Register. Preliminary rates are as follows:
| Producer/Exporter | AD Rate (Prelim) |
|---|---|
| Master Nails and Pins Manufacturing, LLC / Middle East Manufacturing Steel, LLC | 4.3% |
| Rich Well Steel Industries LLC | 2.28% |
Commerce said it is rescinding the review for 16 companies that had their requests for review withdrawn: (1) Al Falaq Building Materials; (2) Al Khashab Building Materials Co., LLC; (3) Al Rafaa Star Building Materials Est.; (4) Al Sabbah Trading and Importing, Est.; (5) All Ferro Building Materials, LLC; (6) Asgar Ali Yousif Trading Co., LLC; (7) Azymuth Consulting, LLC; (8) Burj Al Tasmeem, Tr.; (9) Dubai Wire FZE; (10) Gheewala Hardware Trading Company, LLC; (11) New World International, LLC; (12) Okzeela Star Building Materials Trading, LLC; (13) Samrat Wire Industry, LLC; (14) SK Metal International DMCC; (15) Steel Racks Factory, LLC; and (16) Trade Circle Enterprises, LLC.
Assessment Rates
As part of this administrative review, Commerce will also calculate final AD assessments on importers of subject merchandise exported by the companies under review that was entered May 1, 2021, through April 30, 2022. If the preliminary results are confirmed in the final results, importers of subject merchandise from MEM/Master and Rich Well will be assessed AD at importer-specific rates. The cash deposit rate for all other producers or exporters will continue to be 4.3%, the all-others rate.
(The period of review is 05/01/21 - 04/30/22. See the notice for additional information, including the scope of the order, potential cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc.)
